Chapter 346: Strange (2)(1/2)
“Communication?”
Zhu Gaochi's big fat face had clear eyes and a simple and honest look on his face.
"This is natural! My brothers and I have the three closest brothers, and my uncle also loves me the most. So every year, regardless of winter and summer festivals, I will communicate with each other and send some local specialties and other products!"
As he said that, he smiled again, "Isn't it natural for my nephew to get close to my uncle. Isn't it true that my uncle is kind to me?"
What he said was natural and was not fake, so that people could not find any fault.
"Then why are you close to Xu Zengshou?" Zhu Yunxi asked again.
"Avoid suspicion!" Zhu Gaochi said seriously, "My uncle is the chief general of the Five Army and is in an important position. As the sons of the vassal kings, he naturally needs to avoid suspicion!"
"Oh?" Zhu Yunxiu smiled again, "Avoid suspicion? What suspicion? Is there three hundred taels of silver here or is it a melon field?"
As he said that, he sneered, "Are you so unforgivable in your hearts that you are even suspicious of your close uncle?"
Their words were very fast, and Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui looked confused when they heard it.
OK, why did you suddenly get involved in my uncle's house?
"Your Highness forgives your crime, your highness is broad-minded and naturally won't think anything!" Zhu Gaochi smiled, "But there are many people in the capital, and there are inevitably people who like to quarrel and make trouble. I am also the sons of the vassal kings and many imperial officials.
The censors stared at him, if... I said, if there is someone who wants to invite fame, even if you are in a vain, I can't even explain it clearly even if you have a mouth!"
"It's nothing to say that I'm waiting for you, but it's not beautiful if you talk about my uncle!"
"In contrast, my uncle has no power or position..."
"Well, Xu Zengshou is not a good official, and there is a idler in the capital. If you interact with him, don't be afraid of others talking, right?" Zhu Yunsheng said with a smile.
"That's right!" Zhu Gaochi smiled, then sighed slightly, "Sometimes, it's very difficult to put the word "family affection" on me!"
After he finished speaking, he sighed again, his chubby face full of loneliness and sadness.
It seemed that he was in a state of grievance.
"The fat man can act! He can talk!"
Zhu Yunxi cursed in his heart and smiled, "You, I'm thinking too much!"
As he said, he continued, "Don't you behave rightly and you don't have to be wrong? You do it right. No matter how distorted others are, you will not believe it! On the contrary, if you have something to do, even if you are not close to each other, you will be lonely.
Don't know?"
"It's time to walk around. If your father, King Yan, really want to say something to avoid suspicion! You three brothers, why do you want to do so much!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxiu changed the subject, "Is your residence settled in the capital this time?"
This time is different from before. The three of them could live in the palace last time, but this time it was not.
"Or!" Zhu Yunxiu thought about it and continued, "I will make arrangements for you!"
"No, no!" Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said.
Let Zhu Yunxiu arrange that the three of them became cage birds? Didn’t they all speak and act exposed to other people’s noses?
"Next to Taiyuan Lane of Honglu Temple, there is a house where my father lived when he entered Beijing before, and I will live there!" Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said.
"Woo!" Zhu Yunxiu nodded, "Okay!" and continued to smile, "There is no staff to serve over there? Let's turn around and let some eunuchs and palace servants go over!"
"No need, no need, no need!" Zhu Gaochi hurriedly said, "I have nothing to do!"
"Putting aside Gu's identity, you and I are cousins. You have just talked about family affection. Why do you have to be so polite to Gu now?" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "Come here!"
The turtle shyly lowered his head and came in from outside, "I'm here!"
"The orphans were sent to the internal officials and officials, and they asked them to send people to serve the three emperors of the King of Yan!" Zhu Yunxiu said loudly, "Also, let's see what is missing there, all the things missing are from the palace.
Make up for the past!”
"Yes! I'm doing this!"
After giving the order, Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhu Gaochi with a smile, "But if you say something alone, if you are humble, you will be alienated!"
Zhu Gaochi had no choice but to stand up and salute solemnly, "I thank Your Highness for your kindness!"
As he said that, he glanced at the other two brothers with his eyes horizontally.
The third brother Zhu Gaosui suddenly woke up, got up to salute, and at the same time he kicked Zhu Gaoxu slightly.
Zhu Gaoxu was thinking about how to meet Lan Yu, "You dare to kick..."
However, he immediately woke up and followed him to salute.
"Forget it, I'm not outsiders!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "Come on, I've been talking, but I haven't eaten any food. Today is a welcome banquet for you. I'll wait until you have settled and have enough rest before entering the palace to give it to me.
The old man kowtows!"
As he said that, he continued to laugh, "You are here, Uncle Fifteen is coming soon, and this year's New Year is coming, it's lively!"
~~~
The next morning, Zhu Yunxiu accompanied the old man to have breakfast.
Because of the health, the old man's diet has become much lighter.
The old man was sitting knocking his legs, looking at the table without his favorite pickles, cured meat, salt, eggs, etc., which he was quite disliked.
"Damn it, I'm so old, I have to take care of you for a meal! Ah, how many more days can we eat? I'm so clean and slim every day, and the insects in my stomach are hungry and thin!" The old man said dissatisfiedly.
, "You said, how many days can we eat? We can't do it according to our thoughts?"
Zhu Yunxi personally served a bowl of millet porridge for the old man, "Grandpa Emperor, this is what Ning'er cooked for you by himself when he woke up in the morning. The dates are placed in it, which is the best way to nourish the stomach!"
"Ning'er is sensible. You are just a verbal guy!" The old man held the bowl, blew his breath, and then sucked along the edge of the bowl.
He drank half a bowl in one breath and said, "It's sweet, nothing to eat!" As he said that, he glanced at Zhu Yunxi again, "Those three boys are settled?"
Zhu Yunxiu knew who the old man was talking about and smiled, "I live in the house where Uncle IV originally lived, and the people who served him have been sent over!"
"Well, among the three of them, the boss is quite sensible!" The old man said.
"What the emperor said is that Gao Chi is a serious person!"
"He, actually, we look at him, it looks a bit similar to your father's temperament, really!" The old man smiled, "I'm so mean!"
At this moment, Pu Bucheng bowed and came in from outside.
"The Emperor!"
"Say!" the old man said, holding the porridge bowl.
"The Fifteenth Master is back!" Park Bucheng whispered.
"The fifteenth brother is back!" The old man was immediately overjoyed.
"So fast!" Zhu Yunxi was also a little surprised, "Yesterday's letter said that it would take some distance!"
"The Fifteenth Master changed his horse along the way and came in a hurry of lightning..."
Before Park Bushen finished speaking, the old man said loudly, "Hurry up, let him come and see him!" As he said that, his big hand sorted out his hair, "We haven't seen the fifteenth brother for a long time! I don't know
Our fifteenth brother is strong or black!”
~~~~
Half a stick of incense came from outside the hall.
"Father, son is back!"
Zhu Zhi's loud voice sounded, and the old man sitting on the throne in the hall immediately stood up, "Old Fifteen, come in quickly, come in quickly, it's cold outside!"
The gate of the hall was pushed open by two eunuchs.
A dusty figure came in and knelt directly at the door, kowtowing heavily, with a little choking voice.
"Father, the unfilial son, the fifteenth son, are back!"
"It's good to come back, no filial piety!" The old man smiled and walked forward, "I heard that you are very dedicated in Liaodong. You are also the leader in this war, and you have not lost the reputation of our Zhu family!" Speaking of this, the old man said that, he is the first to do his best.
Bow yourself, holding the other person's shoulder with his hands, "Get up quickly, my family doesn't have so much politeness. You're tired all the way! Have you eaten yet? Let's ask someone to prepare a meal for you, your mother knows you
I'm going to come back, I've cried a few times later!"
The old man was talking nonsense, and he felt a little sad when he talked about it.
"Oh, I'll seal you so far away, and I won't see you for several years." The old man patted his son's heavy shoulders, "Fortunately, you are now adult and a man!"
"Father! My son misses you every day!" Zhu Zhi raised his head and burst into tears.
"Good boy, we know you are filial. You have been good since you were a child..." As he said that, the old man paused, looked at the scars on Zhu Zhi's face and asked loudly, "What's going on?
?” Then, he looked back at Zhu Yunxiu, “What happened? Do you know?”
Zhu Yunhuang knew about this, but the old man was concealed in the military newspaper.
"My son was defeated in Dalinghe, and the guards were overthrown, and they were chased by the Tartars like a broken dog!" Zhu Zhi gritted his teeth and said with tears, "At that time, Mr. Monk's command was not three, and he was both angry and ashamed!"
"As the prince of the Ming Dynasty, I am deeply insulted by the emperor's father. I cannot defend the border and lose my troops and humiliate the country. I feel even more panic and ashamed!"
"And when I think of the loyal and brave men who followed the ministers, they suffered heavy casualties and the people on the border were slaughtered by the Tartars, and they felt even more like a knife!"
"On that day, my son was on the battlefield and swearing, and he was determined to avenge this deep hatred! If he did not take revenge, he would be willing to die in the frontier!"
